Karaoke Dance Party at the Prado

  This group was a blast!   In the Loggia Room at the Prado overlooking the Round a bout and the fountain. It took a little while for them to get into the groove, but once they got started they loved Karaoke.  Several times throughout the night singers chose good dance songs and sang them so well that the dancefloor filled up so I just rolled with it and played more dance music.  They were lovin it!  Everything from 70's to Currents, they were dancing, singing and just having a great time.

Wedding Ceremony and Reception at Spanish Village in Balboa Park - San Diego

  I ran the music and mic's for the ceremony at the far end of the village complex and then Dj'd the dinner and dancing near the gazebo area.  They danced a lot and all was good, the only thing that was tough was the 1 hour quick turn around between the shops closing at 5 and the start of the wedding at 6.

Enzoani Fashion Show

  Last week a team of Lighting, Audio and Fashion Show Production pro's descended upon the St Regis Resort in Dana Pt. CA for Enzoani's fashion show.  I was playing the music for the runway models to walk to.  The Show used the entire space on the Grand Lawn including the walkways that served as the runway.   Models appeared on the upper level of the Grand Lawn Stairs and progressed down into the audience and around both section of the runway.  It was amazing...  and the Enzoani line for 2012 is beyond amazing.  Such creativity yet functionality in a real world situations.   No 6 ft wide hats or 25 ft wedding gown trains, just elegance at its best.

Speaking at Los Angeles Convention Center - Idea Fest 2012

I'm Speaking on Music Royalties June 13th at Idea Fest 2012 in Los Angeles at the LA Conv. Center.   The Conference is hosted by BizBash Magazine and they have partnered with ELI (Event Leadership Institute).  ELI asked me to speak again about music royalties and how they affect the Special Event Industry and our clients.

Wedding DJ, Uplights and Gobo ( Monogram) at NTC Promenade

  This was a LONG party, they danced for like 3.5 hours.  But that's the key word, they Danced the entire time.  We only stopped for Cake Cutting and few other formalities.  I provided 16 Uplights and their monogram in light in the center of the dancefloor.  The room looked great and the night was a lot of fun.  There is another Video on my blog by Videographer Joe Park that shows some other great shots away from the dancefloor

Video Dj Wedding at the Prado

  About 200 people for this one, lots of them from the Jersey Area (as you can see by the Boss Video being played).  The Prado is one of my all time favorite locations.  Its classic look and elegance is 5 star quality and the staff from the Sales Team to the Banquet servers are on the ball and really impress me every time I'm there. 
  Video DJ is the same great DJ performance plus the visually engaging element that you get from a music video for each song as it plays.  My Video Library of 18,000 plus videos covers from the Rolling Stones to the Beatles and LMFAO to Katy Perry and everything in between.  Words don't do it justice, you have to see if live to really get the full effect of the energy I create as I DJ and mix live with music videos for Video DJ parties.

Tracy & Ben's St Patrick's Day Wedding DJ & Uplights

March 17th I had the pleasure of being the DJ & Emcee for Ben & Tracy Tong at Maderas Golf Club in Poway. It was a little rainy that day so on short notice the Ceremony was moved indoors into half of the ballroom. These two were all smiles though and the rooom looked great thanks to the Florist and Uplights it made the rain outside melt away.

Here is a video clip from Catch Motion Productions who filmed the whole day.

The Ceremony really set the pace for the rest of day. Tracy walked down the aisle to a family friend singing "If I ain't Got You" originally by Alicia Keys. She sang it so well and in such similar style to the original that I noticed people looking toward when they finally figured out that it wasn't the prerecorded original song.
Reverend Deborah Young delivered the Ceremony for them and when they read their own vows Ben, the Groom went first and really did well. Tracy, the Bride was next and she had arranged with me in advance a special cue to start her music track of "The Way I am" by Ingrid Michaelson,, but she had rewritten the words to fit her Lyrics to a Cheesy Love Song reference in her vows. The crowd erupted in applause when she finished.
Once the Ceremony had finished the Maderas staff invited the guests to the foyer and the tented area outside for a few minutes while the room was converted back to Dinner seating for the reception. You should've seen it, they were amazing, 160 chairs and half a room full of tables, fully set for dinner in just over 15 minutes. I provided music during the break but guests were anxious to get back in and get started.

The room looked great all set and ready, my 8 Amber uplights really gave the room a nice warm touch to make the rainy day quickly forgotten. Dinner was wonderful, if you've never had the food at Maderas you have to go have lunch or dinner there. The chef is amazing and the staff is 5 star quality without a doubt. We finished Dinner with a Video Montage on the 7 ft screen and projector that I provided.

On to the PARTY! You may have noticed in the video clip but at some point, 2 guys in Leprechaun suits showed up.... not just green clothes, I mean full suits, with formal button up vests and jackets and knickers. I don't know where they came from but they were dancing and everyone enjoyed them being there.


The group was really into a lot of top 40 dance with some of the party song classics mixed in from time to time. They really seemed to have fun as they danced the night away, they even extended the party to have me stay longer.
